Video Tutorial: Potatoes with Mushrooms
Main Ingredients
- Potatoes. I like using Russet potatoes and Red Bliss potatoes because they hold their shape well.
- Mushrooms. Although I used Baby Bella mushrooms in this recipe, feel free to use regular white button mushrooms. I also want to try these potatoes with Portobello mushrooms. Maybe one of you will try it first? If you do, please, let me know how you liked it!
- Onion.
- Coconut Milk. Use your favorite brand. I used coconut milk by Native Forest.
- White Wine. Use Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc, or Chardonnay.
- Oil. Use any oil you prefer. I like grapeseed and olive oil best.
How to Make Potatoes with Mushrooms
1. In a large, non-stick griddle, sauté the onions in olive oil over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes and then add the mushrooms and garlic. Keep cooking for about 10 minutes.
2. Pour in the wine and cook just until it evaporates.
3. Add the potatoes, salt, and pepper to the mushrooms and keep frying, stirring occasionally for 10 minutes.
4. Add coconut milk and reduce the heat to low. Cover with a tight lid and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are cooked through.
5. Let it rest for 5 more minutes, garnish with parsley, and serve.
Helpful Tips & Tricks
Slice the potatoes into uniform pieces. This will ensure that the potatoes will cook evenly, and you won't have too much mushy or undercooked pieces.
Use a non-stick skillet. I’ve tried using other skillets and only non-stick cookware performs well for this recipe.
Use full-fat coconut milk. Make sure you are using full-fat canned coconut milk, and not the packaged one, sold next to dairy-free milk in the refrigerated section of the store.
Don’t stir too much. Once you add the coconut milk and cover the potatoes with a lid, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes without peeking. Then open the lid, stir, and cook for another 5-7 minutes or until the potatoes are fully cooked through.
How to Store and Reheat the Potatoes
Store these Potatoes with Mushrooms in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat on the stovetop, adding a bit of coconut milk, if necessary.

I am very grateful for this recipe and will probably try it tomorrow.
However, I would like to point out that mushrooms cannot be reheated. If you do that, they can actually become poisonous. And potatoes one simply does not reheat either. They also make some poisonous chemical compound when doing so. I'm not a nutritionist or a biologist, so I cannot give you specific details. It's just the common sense and traditional knowledge here where I live.

Hi Marijana! Thank you for sharing this info! I will look into this. Hope you'll enjoy this dish tomorrow!
A basic chef says
Hey, I ain't gonna lie, this recipe was FIRE.
However, I used the stuff that I already had in the fridge...
(Cashew milk instead of full-fat coconut)
(Some almost dried up old mushrooms instead of button) ~I ate one of them raw and they tasted like dirty socks🤷🏽♀️~
(4 dollar pinot grigio instead of the good stuff)
And my dish still came out tasting pretty good. They had way more of an earthy flavor than I expected, but I was winging it so that was acceptable. I'd love to try this recipe EXACTLY as it was intended. If my cooking skills and poor ingredients can still make a great dish, this is definately one to try. Thank you so much for the great recipe! Bone apple teeth.😌👌🏽
Tania Sheff says
Thank you so much for the kind words! I am glad you enjoyed it! I can't wait for you to try it again, exactly as the recipe says. 🙂
Lisa says
Yummy! I didn't have parsley, but had some fresh thyme which thankfully didn't ruin it lol Will be cooking often now...have a "dairy & gluten-free" daughter & a vegetarian neice, so they will love!
Tania Sheff says
Awesome! Thanks, Lisa!
Julia Vistorovskaya says
Can I skip the wine and coconut milk? Just cook the veggies in oil and add seasoning?
Tania Sheff says
Hi Julia! You'll need to add the same quantity of veggie broth or cream instead. Otherwise, it will be a different recipe for fried potatoes. You can still do that if you wish.
Margaret says
What can I sub for the wine
Tania Sheff says
Hi Margaret! Just skip the wine or use some veggie broth. Let me know if you try it!
